    Preheat the oven to 200°C (about 400°F). Butter and flour a cake pan.

    Pour batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until the top is lightly golden and a knife inserted comes out clean.

    Once slightly cooled, you can start enjoying it sliced with a bit of butter and honey. You can also cut the cornbread into pieces, toast them in a pan, and serve with butter or jam.

    Cornbread can be stored for about a week if well wrapped in a kitchen towel or plastic wrap.
